Accelerationism has never worked. It's always backfired.

Not sure if Core realizes this, but with a 6 person Conservative Supreme Court, you will never get M4A, or comprehensive CJR, or anything else. Furthermore, Trump will continue to erode voting rights. Good luck getting a progressive elected when more black people can't vote.

Even strategically, this is a really, really stupid decision. It doesn't make sense at all. I'll concede that Trump winning in 2020 probably makes it more likely that a progressive wins in 2024. But the risk is so high, and the cost so large, that it's not worth it, not even close. Politics isn't a binary. Capitalists bad, anti-capitalists good. Biden's not the ideal candidate, but the difference between him and Trump is large enough that it outweighs the small chance that a progressive wins in 2024.

Any basic risk analysis would find that your best option is voting for Biden.

I am not convinced that there will still be a supreme court we need to worry about in four years. The point of revolution is not to retain the old structure of government. Voting for Trump is voting for the failure of the old system. A system founded by racist white men, a system founded on the principle of slavery. Trump, I am convinced, can fuel a progressive revolution. Can fuel a socialist revolution. Can fuel an end to capitalism itself. This is my idealistic (and some might say naive) hope at least. And not just an idle, vain hope, 99% of the people I meet on the streets feel the same.

For one thing, Brett Kavanaugh will be arrested and thrown in prison the second a real progressive takes control of the government.

Hello simulated sports fans.

I have recently returned home from Portland. Revolution is in the air, and I love my family on the streets fighting white supremacy and our capitalistic system. I am so committed to helping achieve real change in this country (God knows it is needed so badly). People of color are executed daily by our fascist police departments. Income inequality has never been greater. Progressive voices have been growing louder and louder over these past several years, and we have also increased the volume warning of the threats that trans people face on a daily basis. I believe in this cause to the heart of my soul. But I have an admission to make: I have decided I will be voting for Donald Trump in 2020.

Don't get me wrong I hate that man. I believe wholeheartedly that he is the worst, most racist, most offensive, dumbest president that our country has ever had. But I can just NOT vote for a centrist ticket of Biden/Harris. Do you know how a revolution is defeated? With centrism. Our less fervent allies will lose interest when the threat of Trump and a fascist takeover is not present. Capitalism will not seem like the evil it is to the majority when "inoffensive" centrists are in charge. Even centrist BS media stations like CNN, which for all their BS at least criticize Trump pretty consistently, will be fawning over Biden and Harris. It is already happening! Have you seen how the media has been falling over themselves to praise Harris? What happened to police reform? This woman imprisoned more people of color than any attorney general in California history! We are being lied to by centrists that do not want real change. We are being lied to by people with a huge financial stake in the game.

I would never admit this on my public facing twitter page, but I believe four more years of Trump is the most direct path to real progressive change and revolution in this country. It fills me with sadness, but I believe my logic is sound. I will be voting for Trump because he is the path that leads to a progressive victory. A complete and total progressive victory with no right wing left to foist their racism and classism on the American people.
Stop masturbating to yourself in the mirror. Ego maniac progressives are as bad as bigoted religious zealots. Look at the big tough guy who wants a revolution! You're not as dedicated as he is!

If this is how Americans think these days it explains a lot. If I recall the PNW is quite beautiful, how about you go for a hike and leave the false bravado for somebody who hasn't experimented with tampons. Freak.

For another thing, you started telling the joke June 7 and it took two plus months to get to the punchline.

Nice transphobia you got there, you wannabe TERF. why don't you hangout with JK Rowling and write up some hate speech into a novel together?
